"God wants His Name to be known in every nation (people group). He works in amazing ways we would never expect to do this, even using regular High School students to reach out to people from another country."

"He doesn't need me. He only wants me. He was working in Japan long before I ever got here and will be after I leave. But he chose to use me! He wants me to be on mission all the time, not just when I'm on an evangelistic activity or am at church, etc. Everything I do should be for Him and His glory."
